Okay, we are given 8240 and 4370. Let's add them up step by step.

Step 1: We'll start by adding the digits 0 & 0 in column 1 and get 0.

Step 2: We'll start by adding the digits 4 & 7 in column 2 and get 11.
We'll write down the last digit 1 and carry the 1 to the next column.

Step 3: We'll start by adding the digits 2 & 3 in column 3 and get 6.

Step 4: We'll start by adding the digits 8 & 4 in column 4 and get 12.
We'll write down the last digit 2 and carry the 1 to the next column.

So, 8240 + 4370 = 12610.
